ASV Inter-School Competitions

These events are an excellent opportunity for students to demonstrate Excellence in an area they are skilled in while creating relationships and connections with students from a variety of schools.

Student LeadershipStudents develop their leadership potential as College Leaders or as members of the Student Representative Council (SRC). To be eligible for Student Leadership, students are encouraged to apply and selected by senior staff to represent the school in an official capacity as ambassadors, hosts and spokespeople.

Student Exchange

Heritage College participates in a student exchange program with AIIU, where students from a Japanese school immerse themselves in everyday Australian English by attending Year 10 classes on-campus. Two groups are hosted at each year: one in Term 1 (Jan to April) and another in Term 3/4 (August to November).

Opportunities to host the exchange students by Heritage College families are welcomed, and can be found in the College newsletter three months leading up to the student’s arrival. Heritage College families provide a strong family connection for each student acting as hosts, providing a rich intercultural experience for all involved.

Heritage College is an Early Learning to Year 12 private Christian School in Melbourne's south east suburbs. Heritage provides education for the whole child, balancing academic, emotional, physical and spiritual development.
